In 2011, the Logic Ritual Association identified that there was a need for improved instruction around our Craft Ceremonies, realising that numerous lodges no longer held a 'Lodge of Instruction' and also found that the knowledge around our ceremonies, particularly concerning actions and perambulations was decreasing, leaving our younger members being left with a 'diluted' version of our ritual.
The Association spent 5 years meticulously working through the ceremonies, presenting demonstrations and spending numerous hours writing each aspect of the signs, salutations, actions and perambulations of each ceremony, to present what has been described as a "World Class Rubric".
The new ritual book for the 3 degree ceremonies was published in 2016 and the Installation ceremony book in 2018.
You can be assured that the words within the ritual were left virtually unchanged, but it was the rubric (red instructions) that was greatly extended, making the ritual book a fully comprehensive 361 page template for ANY lodge.
As you'll see in the image to the right, the 4 pages of rubric attributed to 'Opening the Lodge' is an excellent indication that should you not be able to attend an LOI, this book will present you with a step by step instruction of where to go, what to do and when to do it.
Apart from the additional of the beautiful colour version of the Tracing Boards inside, the are other additional pieces of ritual and rubric that are in no other ritual book.
